With the Power BI Demo Contest entry period over and literally dozens of fantastic videos lined up to compete, now is the time for community voting. Data enthusiasts like yourself get to pour over videos and choose the one you like best.

Here are some details to keep in mind:

Each website visitor may vote one time per day from January 20th - 30th.

At the end of community voting, up to 10 entries with the most votes will be considered potential Semi-Finalists.

To cast a vote, visit www.powerbicontest.com and select the "View Entries" link at the top of the page. From here you'll be able to scroll through the pages of great entries we received and view individual submissions. Once you decide on your favorite video, click the "Vote for this Entry" button at the bottom of the video and follow any subsequent login prompts. That's all there is to it!

So what are you waiting for? Jump in on the action and make your vote count!

As a suggestion for your next competition, please do not use a controversial and biased nature of Facebook voting, let alone repeat voting, for meritocratic competitions. It would serve best not to undermine the great talent and effort put into it by the contestants.
